Additional tour engagements and casting, which is currently underway, will be announced at a later date.

Following his work on the Broadway production, which was originally directed and choreographed by five-time Tony Award winner Susan Stroman, the tour is helmed by Jeff Whiting.

The creative team also includes Jason Ardizzone-West (scenic design), Carolyn Wong (lighting design, based on the original Broadway lighting design by Donald Holder), Shannon Slaton (sound design) and Bernie Ardia (wig and hair design). The tour features six-time Tony Award winner William Ivey Long’s original Broadway costumes.

* Bullets Over Broadway, written by Woody Allen and based on the screenplay by Allen and Douglas McGrath for the 1994 film of the same name, ended its Broadway run Aug. 24, 2014, at the St. James Theatre following 156 regular performances and 33 previews.

Five-time Tony Award winner Susan Stroman (The Scottsboro Boys, The Producers, Contact) directed and choreographed the musical that was adapted for the stage by Allen. Reviews for the production, which did not feature an original score, were mixed. Bullets did receive six 2014 Tony nominations, although it was not nominated for Best Musical.

Veteran musical supervisor Glen Kelly (The Producers, The Nance, Young Frankenstein) adapted and penned additional lyrics for the pre-existing songs from the 1920s and 30s, which were used for the score. The score includes such tunes as "Tain't Nobody's Bus'ness," "Running Wild," "Let's Misbehave," "I Found A New Baby" and more.

"Bullets Over Broadway" centers on an aspiring playwright who finds out that his play God of Our Fathers is getting the Broadway treatment thanks to a wealthy gangster who has taken a sudden interest in producing. The only snag is that his dimwitted moll has to star in one of the leading roles. Thrown into the mix are a mafia thug with a real knack for playwriting and a theatrical grand dame who gives Norma Desmond a run for her money.

Allen's numerous films include "Blue Jasmine," "Annie Hall," "Manhattan," "Crimes and Misdemeanors," "Husbands and Wives," "Love and Death," "Stardust Memories," "Crimes and Misdemeanors," "The Purple Rose of Cairo" and many more (about one a year since the 1970s). His plays include Don't Drink the Water (1966), Death Knocks (1968), Play It Again, Sam (1969), Death (1975), God (1975), The Query (1976), My Apology (1980), The Floating Light Bulb (1981), Death Defying Acts (1995), Writer's Block (2003) and A Second Hand Memory (2004).
